I'm lovin' this picture.We enjoyed a family dinner last night, Norman Rockwell style: twelve of us crowded around the dining room table to celebrate three birthdays.
I broke out the fancy stuff. Happily no one complained.
After everyone left Pizza Man put another log on the fire and I lingered in the living room with just the Christmas tree lights, the fire and Earl Grey. Ahhhh.
I'm determine to make this a month of blessing by giving of my
time, talents, and treasure.
Counting My Blessings,

I love sitting in the quiet after the guests are gone, especially at this season as the candle and tree lights are so beautiful in the late evening. And husband and I can talk over the meal and who said what and what we thought, etc. Just adds another dimension to the whole thing!
ReplyDeleteReliving dinner conversation is so fun, especially by a cozy fire.

Susy, Sounds like a relaxing time after everyone left. We all need to take time to relax and enjoy our blessings during this hectic time of the year.
